Beyond the event, the Hanseatic city of Lüneburg has already taken an important step in municipal heat planning: In June 2025, the council unanimously decided to focus on decentralized, renewable solutions. Heat pumps are considered the most economical alternative to conventional oil and gas heating in many regions, reports the Hanseatic city of Lüneburg.

A look at municipal heat planning

Comprehensive municipal heat planning is a central component of the German climate strategy and aims to make heat supply climate-neutral by 2045. The Federal Association of the Energy and Water Industry (BDEW) highlights that almost 98 percent of municipalities with more than 45,000 inhabitants have already started or have already completed a heat plan. Regional peculiarities in energy supply are taken into account in order to make the transition to renewable energies such as solar thermal energy, geothermal energy and biomass as effective as possible.

The upcoming heat planning law, which will come into force at the beginning of 2024, will require municipalities with more than 100,000 inhabitants to submit a heat plan by mid-2026. Smaller communities have until mid-2028 explains BDEW. Planning includes various steps, starting with the inventory analysis and the suitability test through to the potential analysis and the definition of a long-term target plan. These steps are crucial to ensure cost-efficient and sustainable heat supply.

The path to climate neutrality

A forward-looking heat plan could help overcome the challenges in implementing heat supply such as investments in network infrastructure and innovative technologies such as green hydrogen. The BDEW emphasizes the importance of targeted funding programs to promote network expansion and decarbonization of the heating sector. For municipalities, cooperation with the public and the operators of the heating networks is crucial in order to ensure transparent and data protection-compliant planning.

In the exciting context of digital entertainment, another way to spend your free time is now opening up: users can Insp Play your favorite games such as solitaire, crossword puzzles or quizzes for free and also enjoy films.
